While you're watching, look out for the different household items which can be used for exothermic and endothermic reactions. A Bunsen burner flame is produced by burning methane gas. The ...

Heat packs that contain iron and water packets: Exposing the solution to air results in the oxidation of the iron (creates rust). The oxidation of the iron is an exothermic process. Heat packs that ...

Iron oxide, aluminum, and a catalyst are placed in a flowerpot. The reaction is extremely exothermic resulting in molten iron and aluminum dripping into sand below the flowerpot. The demonstration ...

Igniting a mixture of Fe2O3 and Al with a magnesium ribbon fuse produces molten iron and aluminum oxide in an impressive exothermic reaction. Pick the beverage can up to show the students. Place the ...

There probably aren’t many people out there who aren’t aware of what thermite is and how it demonstrates the power of runaway exothermic reactions. Practical applications that don’t involve ...

I mixed to much resin at once which caused an exothermic reaction. Wayfair Is Selling a "Tiny Ranch Home" That Can Sleep ALL Your In-Laws—And It Ships for FREE! Egg prices are rapidly falling so ...

All combustion reactions (such as the burning of coal) are exothermic. Incredibly, the reaction between iron and moist air that produces rust is a very exothermic process and generates lots of heat.
